Of Gods and Goats

Heaven's mirror

The Norwegians are a breed of half-Gods half-goats who inhabit the great sky-domed hall of Valhalla, and for whom mighty mountains are mere rucks in the ground-cover. 

I have never been so glad of a camera to dally behind while the Gods gambol on their Sunday ramble. Nor have I ever looked more longingly at the temptations being left behind while being urged to portage my hulk over yet another blind summit! Where did the sea-faring Vikings go? Why did they ever allow themselves to be usurped by these übergoats!
